Somewhere upon the waves of the Aquias ocean channel, a bottle floats with the map of forgotten riches. The map was placed there after a family bond began to rip apart. Siblings were gifted the map to use together, but one wanted the undiscovered wealth for selfish reasons. Because of this, the map was thrown away and mentally memorized for the sake of shared prosperity. With the map lost at sea, only one living being knows where the treasure might be near.. An Ex-captain, Vadette Amelie, joins a new crew in order for them all to secure the treasure for the greater good of Aquias. Serving under a new captain, Vadette and crew undergo missions in order to discover the treasure's exact location. Meanwhile: Vadette's berzerk brother, Maxton of the WaveWrecker, is trailing her in order to force out the maps directions. With the help of the crew aboard the SeaKeeper, Aquias could become just as fortunate or even exceed the success of it's big sister region, Epica.

Main Ships

SeaKeeper Captain Laszlo's Dragonair designed ship that braves stormy waves and flies the skies.It may not be the fastest ship in the sea, but it's unique ability to ride wind currents gives it advantage over other ships.

WaveWrecker A Deoxys inspired ship which is the fastest known ship on the sea.
The ship was once shared by Vadette and Maxton until Maxton seized full control after Vadette was driven to escape.

Vadette (Appearance)As Vice-captain of the SeaKeeper, Vadette provides the missions concerning the Aquias treasure. She's a generous, flirtatious spirit with a tough edge. With her team of three pokemon, her duties are to help guard the ship (when docked) and to guide the crew to their ultimate goal. If she's not found conversing with Laszlo or managing the ship, Vadette usually spends time with her pokemon at the edge of the man-made pokemon pool on deck. After the fallout with her brother, Maxton, Vadette joined the Privateer Laszlo so that her intentions for the treasure are rightfully met. Interestingly, she is the only crew member who knows of Laszlo's first name.

Pokemon Team

Captain Laszlo (Appearance)Hired privateer and decisive leader of the SeaKeeper crew. With the number of pirate ships on the rise, Captain Laszlo was authorized by naval officers to attack and help rid the sea of pirates. Experimental in his tactics, Laszlo tries new ways of handling situations often and embraces the outcomes. Naturally aggressive yet humble, he can also be unknowingly sexy and charming with his behavior. As captain, he primarily sails the ship and lets his crew deal with the enemies. This is his way of evaluating his crew and letting them take the spot light in glory. When absolutely necessary, he steps in to help with no hesitation.

Pokemon Team

Maxton (Appearance)An impulsive, hostile boy with a temper like a blazing wild fire. Aside from his coarse behavior, Maxton can be skillfully innovative and he use to keep a sketch book full of useful inventions when he was younger. His latest design, is his flame proof suit with fire expelling claws inspired by a Heatmor of untold significance. Driven by selfish desire, Maxton hunts for his sister who knows the whereabouts of the forgotten treasure that he wishes to claim for himself. Vadette's manic younger brother has been labled a pirate by the Navy, because of his attack on naval vessels. With his emotions spiraling out of control, Maxton chooses to devastate anything in the way of his plans.

He's a fair priced man, but he also has a hell of a temper with difficult customers. He likes Sharpedo tooth necklaces, fossils, and preserved Krookodile heads for gifts. On his freetime, he's at the tavern drinking it up with all the other unruly folks.

"Ship sure needs a healin! Can mend her for a good sum."

Port & Islands

Port Rockypeak(Appearance)A mountainous port near the outskirts of Gambit town in the Aquias region. For decades, Rockypeak has been a key zone for ship commerce between Aquias and her neighboring region, Epica. Governor Zardchu's mansion resides at the peak of the harbor and he has governed the port since the beginning of it's creation. With the help of the Aquias Navy and authorized Privateers, Rockypeak remains secure from any pirate attacks or foreign invaders.

PixiebladeIsland (Appearance)Mystical ruins and radiant jungles make up the majority of this magical island. Fairy and Grass pokemon are mainly found in this serene environment. Some may spot a Togetic flying gracefully within the canopy and a family of bulbasaur scampering along the jungle floor. Traces of human existence is speculated, but the distinct ruin structures are also believed to have been made by the fairy pokemon themselves.

BuzzvoltIsland(Appearance)An island where the roar of thunder is constant and lightning rains down daily. The buzzing volts of lightning are harmonious with the buzzing hums of the local bug pokemon. This electrifying island is ideal for the electric pokemon who inhabit the island as well, and the active electricity strengthens most of them. Exotic hives of various designs are scattered and grouped across the island in unique locations.

BlackfrostIsland(Appearance)The dusky and frigid isle where dark and ice pokemon reside. Sharp pillars of ice are seen all around the island surface with darkened snow from the gloomy weather. An ice pokemon paradise with mounds of snow, frozen lakes, and sparkling icicle forests. Dark pokemon make their homes beneath the snow, along the mountain cliffs, or within the shadowy caves.

Underground tunnels made by the ground types have made access to certain locations more convenient.

MetalmindIsland(Appearance) A psychic and steel type sanctuary with twisted metal structures which makes up a small city-like pokemon village. The psychic pokemon were the designers, while the steel pokemon aided in construction. The modern appeal of the island surpasses the era and many are initially hypnotized by it's extraterrestrial aura. Many people avoid the island, because of a rumor of human experimentation done by the psychic pokemon.

HellfireIsland(Appearance)Home to the ghosts of dead pokemon and fire spitting "demons". Hellfire is a cursed, dreadful island which is believed to be a piece of hell on earth. Fire and ghost pokemon inhabit the half-molten lands contently. The entire place consists of piercing volcanoes and volcanic pillars. The ghosts haunt the fire types frequently which causes them to become flustered often which keeps them aggressive to human travelers.

DeadthirstIsland(Appearance)Many a people have died from drinking from the waters on this marsh filled island. Venom from various poison types leach into the water and only the water pokemon here have evolved to filter the toxins out through their gills. Some areas of water are perfectly clean and are easily detected by the water pokemon, but finding these areas is like a game of russian roulette for humans. The island consists of several swamps and there is very little surface area of land.

So apparently I haven't been getting alerts lately.. Anyways, it's like Crow explained, but the extra Pokemon will go below deck in barrels of pokeballs or something since Pc's weren't invented yet in the time of this RP.

Playing Style- Passive or Aggressive:

While I do consider myself fairly creative at times I rarely have good ideas for plots and almost always prefer someone else to be leading the story along.

Favorite Genres:

Fantasy and magic stuff are the best, I also love sci-fi though not quite as much. Never really done horror related so honestly can't say.

Genre You DON'T Like:

Nothing in particular really.

This particular character of mine only keeps 4 with her, she has two more but they've been left at home, i figured she'd work well here cus like i said one of them is a gyarados who would of course make a great ally for a ship, i can easily enough change that though if you want
